RAYNHAM — The Raynham man who hit a pedestrian with his pickup truck at the Raynham Flea Market Sunday has a history of driving violations including three OUIs.

A 61-year-old New Bedford man, identified as William Maurice, was airlifted to the hospital with "serious injuries' after he was struck by the pickup truck Sunday morning, police said.

"It was out of nowhere," Danny Steele, who was working at his father's table at the flea market when the accident took place, told The Enterprise's news partner WCVB-TV, . "He was just walking and stuff, minding his own business when he got hit."

Witnesses said that the victim had been pushing a shopping cart when the pickup truck accelerated backwards hitting the pedestrian and the side of the flea market building.

The driver of the car was identified as Robert Gadsby, 75 of Raynham, police said.

"I saw a guy pulling out really fast," Steele said. "He did a full 360 and he hit a person with the back of his car."

A vendor, who was a former paramedic and state trooper, rushed to help the pedestrian.

The vendor told media that Gadsby had said to him that his car accelerator was stuck.

Raynham police and fire personnel responded to the popular flea market -- which draws thousands of patrons each Sunday -- at 9:25 a.m., finding the injured man lying on the pavement in the parking lot.

Gadsby remained at the scene and was cooperative.

Based on Gadsby's driving record, which was obtained by The Enterprise, an "immediate threat" was filed, which is filed by police when they find a driver to be dangerous in order to suspend their license.

Gadsby's driving record also revealed multiple other violations including three OUIs between 1982 and 1989, driving with a suspended license, speeding and marked lanes violations.

The injured party was taken by ambulance to a nearby parking lot, then airlifted to the hospital. He has since been treated and released from the hospital.

Police said Monday morning the crash remains under investigation and no charges have been filed.

The Raynham Flea Market welcomes thousands of visitors each Sunday from 7 a.m. to 5 p.m., and generally has more than 500 vendors peddling wares in the 60,000-square-foot facility.
